Note: The concentric circles analogy is based on the idea that the universe is leading each of us toward our intended purpose in life. This path, at times, may seem circular but is actually a gentle rotation of our experiences that we can observe, reflect upon, learn from, and discover our individual purpose and the amazing signature the universe has given each of us.

Lyrics:
Do you wish to fix a broken boy
I am not in need of rescue. Those years have gone by, I am a man.
Thank you caringMy emotions, only I can do this repairing.
I am a man, enjoy me as I am
I am a man, enjoy me as I am
When I'm down, stay by my side.But remember, this is only my responsibility. No need to for you to run and hide.
When you are down, you are never my responsibility but always safe by my side.
I am a man, enjoy me as I am. I am a man, enjoy me as I am.
I am a man, enjoy me as I am. I am a man, enjoy me as I am.

"Upside Down Girl" V1 .mp3 Posted 5/26/2021
Lyrics:
Work a little harderYou’ll never be far apartLove a little more And you’ll win his heart
Upside down girl You can't win this race. Upside down girl You keep running so fastto stay by his side Yet still alone and empty inside.
Upside down girl Life is passing you by Upside down girl
Have run this race so many timesA childhood yearning disappointment every-time. Upside down girl You keep suffering inside Upside down girl
So hard to leaveUpside-down world behind You thought this was love all this time
Still empty inside The race where you thought you could hide.
Upside down girl This is not love. Upside down girl
So hard to leaveYour upside-down world behind You thought this was love all this time
Step into the unknownVictory on the other side
Turn right side up girl
Step through the unknown True love on the other side
Right-side up girl Right-side up girl
Upside down girl You can't win this race. Upside down girl You keep running so fastto stay by his side Yet still alone and empty inside.
Upside down girl Life is passing you by Upside down girl
Have run this race so many timesA childhood yearning disappointment every-time. Upside down girl You keep suffering inside Upside down girl
So hard to leaveUpside-down world behind You thought this was love all this time
Still empty inside The race where you thought you could hide.
Upside down girl This is not love. Upside down girl
So hard to leaveYour upside-down world behind You thought this was love all this time
Step into the unknownVictory on the other side
Turn right side up girl
Step through the unknown True love on the other side
Right-side up girl Right-side up girl

Note: This song is about the avoidance attachment style and someone who deep inside wants emotional intimacy, but their defense mechanisms make them emotionally unavailable. Yet, at times, a window of vulnerability and honesty open up. In this song fear holds the person back, toward the end of the song there is hope.

"Need You, Goodbye" V1 .mp3 Posted 5/26/2021
Lyrics:
Need you, goodbye.Don't try control me.This is not why.
Your heart is open.Beginning to trust you.I must say goodbye.
Won't open my heart to show what's inside. Tried to warn you only way I can hide.
Need you, goodbye.Don't try control me.This is not why.
Treat you so badlydo not know why.You keep loving me.I am hurting inside.So afraid to lose you .Why do you stay by my side.
Need you, goodbyeDon't try control me.This is not why.
Want you so badly. Leave my fears behind.Your love frightens me. Must run and hide.
I need you, don’t go away.
Don’t go away.
Don’t go away.
Please stay.
Please stay.
Your heart is open.Beginning to trust you.I must say goodbye.
Won't open my heart to show what's inside. Tried to warn you only way I can hide.
Need you, goodbye.Don't try control me.This is not why.
Treat you so badlydo not know why.You keep loving me.I am hurting inside.So afraid to lose you .Why do you stay by my side.
Need you, goodbyeDon't try control me.This is not why.
Want you so badly. Leave my fears behind.Your love frightens me. Must run and hide.
I need you, don’t go away.
Don’t go away.
Don’t go away.
Please stay.
Please stay.

Keyboard Composition:"Not Really Love" (Pending)
Lyrics:Judgement so familiar and real to you.Is this why you love and protect the one who criticizes you.
Not really LoveNot really Love.
You say you are very close to the one who challenges you. But these seductive criticisms are not what is truly amazing about you.
Why don’t you trust the one who truly loves and accepts you. They must be defective. Why don't they get angry and criticize you.
Not really Love.Not really love.
Your honest and caring questions twisted into criticisms you did not intend. They think it is your fault because it is always about them.
You say that you are very close to them. That your love is true. Are you simply loving the familiar, is this really the authentic you.
Not really Love.Not really love.
Angry and frustrated your heart empty inside.The one you desperately love only criticizes, betrays, and is not by your side.
Who will truly understand, cherish you, and always stay. How can you trust in what you do not yet believe in. A fairy tale in a land far, far, away.
You are the one, and not so far away. Your heart is your home and here to stay.
This is the authentic you. The one who never criticizes only truly accepts and loves you.
This is the authentic you. The one who never criticizes only accepts and truly loves you This is really love.This is really love.
Not really LoveNot really Love.
You say you are very close to the one who challenges you. But these seductive criticisms are not what is truly amazing about you.
Why don’t you trust the one who truly loves and accepts you. They must be defective. Why don't they get angry and criticize you.
Not really Love.Not really love.
Your honest and caring questions twisted into criticisms you did not intend. They think it is your fault because it is always about them.
You say that you are very close to them. That your love is true. Are you simply loving the familiar, is this really the authentic you.
Not really Love.Not really love.
Angry and frustrated your heart empty inside.The one you desperately love only criticizes, betrays, and is not by your side.
Who will truly understand, cherish you, and always stay. How can you trust in what you do not yet believe in. A fairy tale in a land far, far, away.
You are the one, and not so far away. Your heart is your home and here to stay.
This is the authentic you. The one who never criticizes only truly accepts and loves you.
This is the authentic you. The one who never criticizes only accepts and truly loves you This is really love.This is really love.

Her daugher's eyes light-up the sky
Her mother's heart in her eyes.
She holds her tight
as she coos on
through the night
Her mother's heart
so warm and pure
This little girl
sleeps rest assured
In the morning light
she knows everything is alright
Her mother's heart in her eyes
Her mother's heart in her eyes
